Christian and Related Terms Used in Interlinear Glosses in the Old English Period

By Michiko Ogura

Nouns, adjectives, adverbs and verbs in biblical contexts are included through dialectal (Northumbrian, Mercian, and West Saxon) diachronic (early and late West Saxon) and idiolectal (i.e. scribal) comparison.
